| 1 | To the Overseer.—By David. A fool hath said in his heart, 'God is not;' They have done corruptly, They have done abominable actions, There is not a doer of good. |
| 2 | Jehovah from the heavens Hath looked on the sons of men, To see if there is a wise one—seeking God. |
| 3 | The whole have turned aside, Together they have been filthy: There is not a doer of good, not even one. |
| 4 | Have all working iniquity not known? Those consuming my people have eaten bread, Jehovah they have not called. |
| 5 | There they have feared a fear, For God [is] in the generation of the righteous. |
| 6 | The counsel of the poor ye cause to stink, Because Jehovah [is] his refuge. |
| 7 | 'Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When Jehovah doth turn back [To] a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice—Israel is glad! |
